Something Else Coming.

According to the Interior anoth-
er moral question is coming INTO
politics, which will undoubtedly
raise a pretty stiff breeze of moral
Indignation. Says the Interior:
$ father might to-day tramp all
over Chicago with son who want
ed to learn an honest trade, so as
to become a useful citizen, and fail
unless he took him to the Manual
Training School and paid tuition
for him. Hundreds of boys are
now thus taught handicraft at tbs
expense of fathers who can afford
to pay for it. But let poor mans
son try it, and he will be met at
the door of the factory or shop by
"a walking delegate of the KNIGHTS
q 4sssssbeH.-aH4sl ssa-aes. w,
Won't no, ms race viii be bruised
by brutal fists, and so will the
faces of those who stand by him.
If any one supposes that there is
any limit to this kind of opposi-
tion-any point at which the would
be monopolists of labor would
draw the line of limitation upon
themselves-he does not under
st-nd depraved human nature. If
individual liberty to acquire skill
and earn bread and control earn
ings is not protected by law, and
by resolute public sentiment BE-
hind that law, then reign Of alb
solute lawlessness is visible not
very far in the distant future. The
disbarred classes ON one hand and
the employing classes on the other
will join hands, and fight for their
right. The violence will not very
long be all upon one side, and the
violence which has human liberty
and rights back of it will win. We
are always glad to see tyrannical
and heartless employer forced to
do right by organized labor" but
when organized labor determines
to rob the American boy of his
birthright, then it is evoking NOR
al and material forces against it
self which will not fail to beat it
to pieces.

How to Make Money.

Mr.. L. P. Tibbals, of $50 Broad
way, is pretty generally known by
great many children in New York
He has sold toys and taught Sun
day-schooi a good many years, and
he is still a vigorous young man
full of good works. Mr.. Tibbals
has formulated a very ingenius
rule, showing the profit a family
may derive from a single whisky
drinking member, as follows:
One gallon of whisky costs about
50, and contains on the average 65
ten cent drinks. Now, if you must
drink whisky, buy 4 gallon and
make your wife the barkeeper;
then, when you're dry, give her 10
cents for drink. When the whis-
ky is gone, she will have, after
paying for it, $3.50 left, and every
gallon thereafter will yield the
same profit. This money she
should put away in the savings
bank, so that when you have be-
come an inebriate, unable to sup
port yourself, and Stunned and
despised by every respectable per-
son, your wife may have money to
keep you until your time comes to
fill a drunkard's grave.

There is no question but that the drouth
is getting tob0 serious matter not only
with the small farmer but with the stock
man. The grass is coming up very slowly
and as the water has dried up in nearly
all the creeks, stock will, of course, be
confined TO grazing near the streams and
large water holes, and the grass will, of
course, be soon eat up. But if one begins
to look around for some place to go to
better their condition, such place is
hard to find. North, south, east and west
n4uSthe people are suffering as we are,
and a move would only make things
worse. This drouth cannot last much
longer, and even if we should not have
rain until the first of May, if we have
plenty then, the stock interests will be all
right and lots of feed can be made. If we
can only pull through we may not have
such state of things again for years.
This severe drouth is something that has
never been experienced here before and
may never be again. The man who sticks
to his home and business will vet come
out all right.-Brady Sentinel.

Following Is a synopsis of the
work done by the Goth Legislature;
Eleven new counties have been
created; numerous changes have
been made by redistricting several
portions of the state into Judicial
districts; the civil and penal stat
utes have been changed in several
instances, notably, as to carrying
arms, and where injury to railroad
property is provided for; dealing
in futures was prohibited; election
laws were changed; the sale of Ii
quor was regulated; constitutional
amendments as to prohibition and
changes in the judiciary system
were submitted to the the people;
the law as to the effect of wills pro-
bated in -otl-a.- sistes, was changed;
GLOWING any city on s5'sssaa -
'%mpromise mdehtdness was pass
ed; a house of correction was pro-
vided for; law regulating the
lease and sale of land, excellent in
nearly every feature, was passed;
the public school law was changed,
and while there were persistent
efforts to change the laws govern
ing railroads only few minor cor
rections were made. A good many
private measures will fill out the
number to about 100 new laws
passed at this session of the legis-
lature.

Addressing a party of business
men at Bridgeport, Conn, the
other day, P. T. Barnum said:
You do not, any of you advertise,
enough. You ought to use print
ers' ink every day. You are asleep
and want your business to run
itself Standing advertisements
in paper command confidence.
The man who for year lives in
one community and leads a repu-
table life, even though he be of
moderate ability, will grow in the
confidence and esteem of his fell
lows. On the same principle a
newspaper advertisement becomes
familiar with the eyes of the read
er. Ii may seldom be read, still
it makes the name and business of
the man familiar, and its presence
in the columns of a paper inspires
confidence in the stability of the
enterprise.
